I have bought at least four over time of the zipped up cardigans. I do not sit with my elbows on a desk or table but the elbows in three of them has worn so thin after twice repairing have cut the sleeves to short sleeve. I should not have to do that. The orange one has even started to split on arm seam - why? More mending. The latest was black and not yet been worn a lot. Quality does not feel as good as previous ones. Now I learn they are made in China I will have to think quite seriously before buying anything more. Used to recommend will no longer do that. No other cardigans have ever worn so very badly. You need to sort something out. Ann Jihnson
